Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
Mint chocolate chip ice cream never goes out of style. This recipe features the most wonderfully creamy ice cream base, the perfect amount of peppermint, and dark chocolate that takes everything to the next level.
Ingredients
- 4 teaspoon corn starch
- 1 ¼ cups whole milk split
- 1 ¼ cups heavy cream
- ¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon corn syrup
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1 ½ cups dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine corn starch with ¼ cup of the whole milk.
- Combine the corn starch mixture, the rest of the whole milk, heavy cream, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a medium saucepan. Heat on medium, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- In a separate bowl, combine evaporated milk and peppermint extract, then stir until fully combined.
- Pour both mixtures through a fine mesh strainer together into a large bowl and stir until combined. Chill in your refrigerator for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
- Put mixture into your ice cream maker and follow the instructions that came with the machine.
- Once the ice cream is done churning, remove from the machine and fold in chocolate chips.
- Serve as soft-serve or store in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to 2 weeks. If the ice cream is too hard to serve right from the freezer, allow to sit for 10-20 minutes before scooping.
